Ethernet Communications:

Selecting this option sets DriveWizard

™ to connect to the drive through an Ethernet

network to an CMO9x option card mounted on the drive. For DriveWizard

™, the only settings

required are the IP address of the drive you are connecting to and whether or not you are just
monitoring or utilizing RunWizard. DriveWizard

™ has the factory default setting of

192.168.1.20 in the

Drive Name, Drive Address

setting window so that if the card has not yet

been configured you can use this default address.

When using the GPD315/V7 CMO91 or CMO93 communications kits you will need to

select the proper database (V7 Ethernet) that supports the GPD315/V7 with these
communications kits. Also, the GPD315/V7 drive must have the proper software installed for
the CMO91 or CM093 communication kit to work properly. Refer to the CM091 or CMO93
installation guide for further information.

reset remotely.

Drive Name, Drive Address
The

Drive Name, Drive Address

box (Figure 4.29) has the ability to allow the user to store

multiple IP or drive addresses and assign a drive name to that address. The list is stored in the
DriveWizard

™ directory as a CSV file such that it can be edited in Excel or in DriveWizard™

(the list can be as long as you wish). The name should be limited to 32 characters to properly
display the name on the status bar (see STATUS BAR in Chapter 5, Monitor).
